Hello NormK, I bet it's a great little chainsaw, with just a hiccup happening at the moment. Being the learner that I am, I'm feeling a little cheeky replying to your forum, but I'm learning and that's so good. Being a 2 Stroke, I'm assuming that it would have a Carburettor that would have one of those plastic needles in it, have you looked at the needle, as you taught me about this little item and also what a Carburettor actually was.
